Description: Miller, Henry - Tropic of Cancer, 4th printing - 1938 Miller, Henry (1891-1980) Tropic of Cancer, 4th printing (1938) Description: Paris: The Obelisk Press, 4th impression, softcover, 1938 Condition report: Good condition, detached at front cover Miller wrote the book between 1930 and 1934 during his "nomadic life" in Paris.: The fictional Villa Borghese was actually 18 Villa Seurat in Paris' 14th arrondissement. As Miller discloses in the text of the book, he first intended to title it "Crazy Cock". Miller gave the following explanation of why the book's title was Tropic of Cancer: "It was because to me cancer symbolizes the disease of civilization, the endpoint of the wrong path, the necessity to change course radically, to start completely over from scratch." Anaïs Nin helped to edit the book. In 1934, Jack Kahane's Obelisk Press published the book with financial backing from Nin, who had borrowed the money from Otto Rank.
